About the Author
ELIZABETH DAVID (1913-1992) changed the face of British cooking. Travelling widely during WWII, she introduced post-war Britain to the sun-drenched delights, new flavours and aromas of the Mediterranean, the Middle East and India. She returned to England in 1946 to write the classic Mediterranean Food, followed by five further books that all became bestsellers. Also a prolific journalist, she was made a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature and a CBE.
Review
Quite simply, the best food writer of her time. --The Times Literary Supplement
If we were to bushwack our way back to the true source of modern American food culture, we would find that it is not Julia Child, but Elizabeth David. (Her) recipes are all charm. --The New Yorker
Like all of David's books, this one is even better for daydreaming. The author seems to have viewed it that way herself. As much as she loved thinking about food and sharing it with friends and family, her own idea of a fine holiday to was to stay in bed, making herself lunch on a tray. Smoked salmon, home-made bread, butter, lovely cold white Alsace wine. A glorious way to celebrate Christmas. --The New York Times

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Illus. With Photos (illustrator). The ultimate Christmas food book from the best-loved and most respected cookery writer of recent times, including previously unpublished material. Throughout her pioneering career Elizabeth David often talked about wanting to compile a short Christmas book. Over the years she collated recipes, articles and notes into a file and even went so far as to write an introduction for the book. Beautifully written and illustrated, ELIZABETH DAVID'S CHRISTMAS contains the full file of around 150 recipes and is designed to take the strain out of providing festive food. All the classics are here: mincepies, stuffings and turkey, as well as simple first courses, party dishes and a range of desserts that make this book an irresistible festive fare. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Seller Inventory # GOR001285740
